David Pike Photography

Artist Bio: David Pike

Photography is my way of taming a restless mind, finding focus in nature’s raw beauty. Based in the Rio Grande Valley, I chase the fleeting details of the world through my lens—waves crashing on South Padre’s shores, birds slicing the coastal sky, flowers blooming in quiet corners, and animals poised in their untamed grace. My work blends technical precision—long exposures, vibrant light play—with an instinct for moments that pulse with life.

Living with pure-O OCD fuels my craft. The mental hum pushes me to hyper-focus, diving deep into nature’s textures and rhythms until they become my own. It’s not just a hurdle; it’s my lens—turning inner chaos into visual clarity. Each frame, from a heron’s stillness to a dune’s curve, is my anchor, a space where I shape the world and quiet the noise.

My images have graced news stories and university campaigns, and now, I just shoot for me. I invite you to step into my view—a world where focus carves beauty from the disarry, one shot at a time.
